Thoughts For Today

“Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe and to do all His commandments which I command you this day, that the Lord your God will set you on high above all nations of the earth” (Deuteronomy 28:1).  This scripture is an incredible promise from God.  The protection of God, when you are in His will and following His commandments, is the safest place in the universe.  Only God can make that kind of promise, because He is God.  Coming to the understanding that there is nothing or no one who can save your soul, deliver you from the hand of your enemies, heal your body and your broken heart but God, is the greatest revelation there is.  God is the Most High God.  He is El Shaddiah, God who is more than enough.  It is truly His desire to bring you into heavenly places and seat you at His right hand. God is not looking at you in your present circumstances, He already sees you as perfect and blameless.  He is, however, looking for godly men and women to whom He may show Himself strong.  Second Chronicles 16:9 declares, “For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of them whose heart is loyal to Him.”  God is diligently seeking men and women whose heart (spirit man) is strong (perfect) toward Him.  He will completely support those that have given their hearts 100% to Him.  Psalm 34:15 states, “The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open unto their cry.”
